Money returned
Print Edition
A Hangzhou woman studying in Adelaide, Australia, has become a star overnight after she returned A$200,000 (US$150,167) that was mistakenly sent to her account by a local bank.
The girl surnamed Dong said she was in a shop when she received a call from the National Australia Bank on June 30, asking her to check the transfer of A$200,000 to her account.
“I thought the woman on the other end of the line was a cheater and was trying to steal money from my account as these kinds of tricks often happen in China,” Dong said in a phone interview.
She checked her account via online banking and was surprised to find A$200,000 in it. She contacted the bank immediately and returned the money.
An Adelaide newspaper, The Advertiser, interviewed Dong and published her story with a photo on July 2.
